Description: As our lives become busier, our environment more polluted and our traditional healthy systems less accessible and reliable, more and more people are realising that it is in their own interests to take care of their health - not just in order to avoid becoming ill, but also to feel really good and get maximum enjoyment from their daily lives. This latest, fully updated edition of The Natural Health Bible contains all the most contemporary approaches to healthy eating, regular exercise and relaxation for achieving optimum physical health, and explores the vital connections between physical and mental and emotional well-being. It includes scientific proof of the relationship between mind and body, recent discoveries about how the brain works and the latest findings on the root causes of obesity. It also describes the full range of alternative therapies and treatments available for preventative medicine and to enhance well-being, explaining for what and whom they are most appropriate and when to use them. There is a fully illustrated exercise programme suitable for people of all levels of fitness and a programme of yoga exercises for beginners.
